A water atomized Fe powder for a magnetic compact reduced in deformation resistance during molding and annealing temperature for removing strains is provided. A compact having improved magnetic properties is also provided. The water atomized powder containing at least one element selected from Nb, Ta, Ti, Zr and V in an amount of 0.001-0.03 atom % is soft magnetic and has a precipitation in the matrix, which is composed of at least one element selected from Nb, Ta, Ti, Zr and V and oxygen as a main component and has an average size of 0.02-0.5 mum. Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a soft magnetic powder includes adding at least one element selected from Nb, Ta, Ti, Zr and V, and annealing in a hydrogen-containing reduction atmosphere. This method decrease gaseous impurities, particularly oxygen, and defuse it, to improve the magnetic properties of the powder and compact.
